[size=18](context: The cable companies are offering home phone service with Internet protocol technology, but without a mobile offering, they lack an essential element of the telecom bundle.)

What does " an essential element of the telecom bundle " mean? Does "an essential element " refer to "the telecom bundle"? Or is "an essential element " one part of "the telecom bundle " ?[/size]

What I understand is that the essential element of the telecom bundle that is missing is the mobile phone.
